		<description>I went to the Naval Academy with Tony Zirkle.  He was a wierd dude...

We were both assigned to the group that trained the incoming plebes during their first Summer.  About halfway through, Tony had a nervous breakdown and disappeared.  He ended up dropping out of school.</description>

		<description>I understand Zirkle got only 16% of the vote this time around.  This is certainly better than the 30% he got in 2006, but still a bit alarming that 16% of Indiana Republicans would accept such a pro-Nazi guy as their representative.  I would hope that the other 84% of Indiana Republicans are saying &quot;not only NO, but H*LL NO!&quot;</description>

		<description>So sad

But the great porn dragon is real. Turns out not even Zirkle is immune from its perversive powers as evident in this recent clip of him

		<description>Well, it looks like even the gop has a level below which they won&#039;t go.

Of course, saying &quot;We won&#039;t support a candidate that goes to the extent of openly celebrating adolf hitler&#039;s birthday complete with nazi uniforms and swastikas&quot; is a pretty low bar by anyone&#039;s standards.</description>
